Rhubarb Upside Down Cake...

I've been a fan of rhubarb since the summer of 2001.  That summer I was a camp counselor at a summer camp in Vermont.  The camp was actually a tennis camp and I was no tennis player back then.  I was a swimmer and a  lifeguard.  Here at camp I was introduced to rhubarb via the crumble and strawberry rhubarb pie.  I fell in love with its tangy, tart qualities and I was hooked.  Since I live in the South, I have to search out rhubarb.  I'm not sure why but you don't see it used much here.  Our local Whole Foods had some.  So, I bought around a pound this past week.  This Rhubarb Upside Down Cake caught my eye.  I gave it a whirl and I'm pleased with the results!  The cake was moist and tangy-- like a Pineapple Upside Down Cake but with a twist.  I'll definitely make this recipe again!

  2. It was good! I made extra crumble, to go on the top or is it the bottom?

    1. I bet you can also use a cast iron skillet to make this recipe. I know cast iron is your favorite.

    2. I'm sure it can be done and probably has been done before. They can make a cheesecake in a dutchoven, this has to be much easier then that!
